Ingredients
- 500 grams Shallots
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
- 100 milliliters Water
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Fresh mint leaves
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Peel the shallots and trim the ends, ensuring they remain intact for cooking.
Step 2
Heat the olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat until the butter is melted and foaming.
Step 3
Add the shallots to the skillet in a single layer and cook for about 5 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are lightly browned.
Step 4
Drizzle the honey over the shallots, stirring to coat them evenly, and cook for another 2 minutes until the honey starts to caramelize.
Step 5
Pour in the balsamic vinegar and water, then sprinkle with salt and pepper. Stir gently to combine.
Step 6
Lower the heat to a simmer, cover the skillet, and cook for 15 minutes until the shallots are tender and the sauce is thickened slightly.
Step 7
Remove the lid and cook for an additional 3-5 minutes, allowing the glaze to reduce and coat the shallots thoroughly.
Step 8
Transfer the glazed shallots to a serving dish and sprinkle with fresh mint leaves before serving.
